The process of aging is associated with involution of different systems and organs, including the musculoskeletalsystem. It may be exacerbated by numerous external and internal factors which appear during lifetime. Thepaper focuses on the phenomenon of sarcopenia — geriatric syndrome, age-related deterioration of physicalcondition as a result of loss in skeletal muscle mass, as well as progressive decline of muscle strength and power.Primary sarcopenia is defined if no other reason is found outside aging. Secondary sarcopenia may result frombehavioral and nutritional conditions or from changes in hormonal status, chronic inflammatory and destructivediseases as well. In 2010 the diagnostic criteria for sarcopenia were published by The Europe...
